Inútil canción, para quién cantás
Si ya la pebeta no escucha tu voz
Ni pone en su boca la dulce ración
Pa' que con tu pico la puedas besar?
Callate! No sigas tu triste gorjeo
No ves que tu canto me agranda este mal?
Callate unos días, muy pocos tal vez
Ya verás que alegría te aguarda después
Si quiere el destino traerme a la ingrata
Seguí con tu trino con tal que alegrés!
Si en cambio resuelve odiarme, no más
Y se queda y no vuelve, entonces verás
Yo te abro la jaula, buscala en tu vuelo
Decile a esa maula por quién le cantás
Inútil canción, para quién cantás
Si ya la pebeta no escucha tu voz
Ni pone en su boca la dulce ración
Pa' que con tu pico la puedas besar?
Callate! No sigas tu triste gorjeo
No ves que tu canto me agranda este mal?
Serás como un hijo que busca la unión
Y lleva un recuerdo atado a un perdón
Y vuelve trayendo, como un triunfador
Un beso en el pico y un lazo de amor
Callate, no cantes, que escucho en tu voz
Un eco distante diciéndome adiós
La jaula está abierta, tendé tu volido
Y al lao de su oído cantá por los dos
